Cassie wins K Factor 2009
Castlecomer girl Cassie O’Donnell won the K Factor 2009 title at the Grand Final at Starlight Studios yesterday 20th of September. Singing Mariah Carey’s Hero she came out on top in a very close final with 12 brilliant acts.
Judges Sharon Molloy, Canice Keneally and Kairen Waloch all paid tribute to the ability and talent of all the acts and said their job was even more difficult this year than last years inaugral compettition. However they are all convinced Cassie was a worthy winner and will do really well for herself.
The winner gets to record her very own debut CD and this will be promoted and launched by Starlight Stage Productions in November. Cassie now has to go away and decide what songs she would like to record on her cd.
